This achieves both excellent sustain and resonance while maintaining high playability.\u003cbr\u003e \nAdditionally, the horn and cutaway feature a deeply scooped shape reminiscent of Ibanez’s flagship RG series, ensuring ease of playability in the higher registers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nStainless Steel Frets \/ Luminous Fingerboard Side Dot Position Inlays\u003cbr\u003e \nWe’ve adopted stainless steel frets, which are easy to maintain, offer a quick attack, provide excellent separation when playing chords, and produce a clear tone when playing single notes.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe jumbo-sized frets allow for light fingering, making them ideal for playing fast passages and performing smooth bends.\u003cbr\u003e \nAdditionally, we have adopted 3.0mm-diameter phosphorescent dot position markers that boast high visibility, allowing you to adapt to rapidly changing performance environments caused by lighting.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nHyperion Pickups, developed in collaboration with Seymour Duncan\u003cbr\u003e \nWe acquired more than dozens of pickups and measured the frequency characteristics of all of them.\u003cbr\u003e \nFrom these, we identified the specifications and sound profile considered optimal for the AZ. This AZ-exclusive pickup was born from a collaboration with Seymour Duncan—a company synonymous with pickup brands that boasts a long history while continuing to innovate today.\u003cbr\u003e \nThese custom pickups are designed to keep the output slightly restrained so that the clarity of the original sound remains even when distorted, with a focus on picking responsiveness and reproducibility.\u003cbr\u003e \nFrom treble to bass, and from the sound of the 1st string to the 7th, we prioritized overall balance and pursued excellent effect response.\u003cbr\u003e \nAlnico-5 magnets are used.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \ndyna-MIX 9 Switching System\u003cbr\u003e \nWith a single flip of the mini-switch, you can freely switch between humbucker and single-coil modes, producing nine different sound variations.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck and middle single-coil pickups are wired in series to simulate a neck humbucker sound.\u003cbr\u003e \nThis switching system is ideal for today’s guitarists who must handle multiple roles with limited gear.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIbanez T1572S Tremolo Bridge (manufactured by Gotoh) with steel saddles\u003cbr\u003e \nThis bridge is a collaboration between Ibanez and Gotoh, a reimagined version of the Gotoh 510 bridge, which is widely regarded by many players and brands as the definitive tremolo bridge.\u003cbr\u003e \nFeaturing a steel saddle and steel inertia block that deliver excellent attack and a tight sound, it is also characterized by its excellent note separation during chord work.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe string spacing is designed with a narrow 10.5mm pitch, prioritizing ease of cross-string picking—a requirement for players who frequently use skipping or hybrid picking techniques.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt also features an arm socket compatible with the Ibanez Edge tremolo arm and the Ultra Light Tremolo Arm (carbon fiber\/UTA20\/sold separately).\u003cbr\u003e \nThe arm snaps into place without the need to screw it in, as with conventional arms. It also features an arm torque adjustment mechanism that allows players to lock or release the arm angle according to their preference.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nFurthermore, it comes standard with a stud lock mechanism that contributes significantly to tuning stability and resonance by securely locking the arm in place with a set screw embedded in the stud.\u003cbr\u003e \nIt features a two-point floating design that allows for smooth arm movement and arm-up.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nGotoh MG-T Locking Machine Heads\u003cbr\u003e \nWe have adopted the Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads, which are renowned for their tuning stability and ease of string changing.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe design allows you to easily lock the string threaded through the post hole by turning the dial with your finger.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n◆ Instrument Information\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n・Serial Number: I260204040\u003cbr\u003e \n・Weight: 3.47 kg","brand":"IBANEZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49196171297020,"sku":"80-2130000063625","price":226600.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/2247\/6028\/files\/e4213e243da9497baffb3e0db8a3f167_202606137263518.jpg?v=1781421201","url":"https:\/\/intl.ishibashi.co.jp\/ja\/products\/80-2130000063625","provider":"Ishibashi Music Corporation.
